I'm trying to make a JTextArea fill the whole frame so it looks somewhat like notepad or textedit. Also would it be possible to have a scroll pane. Thanks in advance! Edit : JTextArea
Try this---
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
public class TextFieldTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame f = new JFrame();
f.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
JTextField tf = new JTextField();
f.getContentPane().add(BorderLayout.EAST, tf);
f.pack();
f.setVisible(true);
}
}
